#standardisation

1 post1 participant0 posts today

🚀 At #MWC25, @SNS_JU united Europe’s top industry leaders to chart the future of 5G, 6G, AI & cloud. Key takeaways:

✅ EU must lead 6G #standardisation & ensure strategic #autonomy
✅ Cloud-network integration is key for AI, security & sustainability
✅ 5G & AI are already transforming #aerospace, #mobility & smart #ports
✅ European R&D is driving global digital leadership

#XMPP

XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) est un protocole ouvert et standardisé pour la messagerie instantanée et la présence en temps réel. Il est largement utilisé pour permettre la communication entre différents systèmes de messagerie et applications. Voici un aperçu détaillé de XMPP :Historique et OriginesXMPP a été initialement développé sous le nom de Jabber en 1999 par Jeremie Miller. Le projet Jabber visait à créer un système de messagerie instantanée […]

We signed a co-operation agreement with Deutsche Institut für Normung e.V. (DIN) yesterday. ✒

ℹ By cooperating, we want to strengthen the efficiency of the German science system and Germany's innovative strength in the long term. Joint info events, workshops and projects on the #standardisation of research data are planned.

My favourite simply-typed #functional #programming language was, is, and will always be, #ML#StandardML '97, nowadays.

To my knowledge, SML is the only modern #FP language that has a defined standard with a mathematically sound semantics, due to Milner et al.

In the 1980s and the 1990s, when the #CS and the #IT world were dizzy with #OO, the stewards of SML exercised their judgement with considerable vigour and valour to shun all pretences of OO. This makes the language simpler and lighter, compared to FP-OO hybrid languages like OCaml, F#, and the like.

While SML is by no means a simple language compared to say, C or Python or JavaScript, it is arguably the simplest among the descendants of ML, especially compared to modern Haskell. By "simple" I mean not only to use the language but also to teach it to the undergrad #CS students. ML's immense collection of textbooks and academic papers dating back to the early 1970s unburdens the teacher.

Yet, I usually recommend #OCaml to my clients who want to transition to FP, especially those clients whose "business" is creating large, robust, adaptable, maintainable software in science and engineering. My reasons are manifold, but the main one is that SML'97 is "dated", whereas OCaml is "modern" in all the venerable senses of that word.

Programming language #standardisation is a double-edge blade with a stiletto point. Without standardisation, the semantics of the language is squishy. After standardisation, the language is dead, unless the standard is kept up-to-date, like C, C++, JavaScript, etc. With or without standardisation, language longevity is hazardous, like the piercing point of a stiletto.

In any case, I feel like a traitor to my bloodline.🤦‍♂️

In regards to #YouTube, #Twitch and streaming services not being sustainable and major loss projects, how about we dump the major providers for a protocol and a standardised replicative data storage standard for use in local network hubs instead.

We could, if we wanted to, decentralise content delivery AND provide receipts for delivery, even authentication, as well as revenue sharing, by way of protocol rather than as a centralised service.

We NEED #standardisation .

Tomorrow we'll host a webinar on the GNU Name System (GNS) and the road to publishing an RFC.

Thursday Feb 22, 13.00 CET.

GNS provides a privacy-enhancing alternative to the Domain Name System. It was published as an #rfc. RFC authors Martin Schanzenbach & Bernd Fix will explain GNS and how the RFC process works.
Stephen Farrell advises on working with #standardisation bodies.
The #webinar is open to all. You can find the link to the BBB platform here: nlnet.nl/webinars/
